Default How heavy is the S2000 short block?

I'm trying to ship the short block out. I need to let UPS know how heavy it is......My guess would be 200 lbs??? Anyone know how heavy it is? Not the whole engine, just the bottom half (short block).

Thanks....

At least 250 maybe a bit more. It feels like 400 when you're moving it

I shipped one a few months back. My recollection is 285 pounds when shipped in the original Honda cardboard box and packing materal.

Weight according to shipping companies is a bit misleading becuase they use two measures to get a price:

1- Weight
2- (lengh x depth x high) /6000

the higher number of those two type of measure is used to set shipping cost.

For example Front lips, bumpers, hoods are very expensive to ship because the size of box not the weight.
